About:Transfer in T3 of Beijing Capital Airport

Can I transfer from international to domestic flight in just 1 hour and 40 minutes at PEK?

I will arrive at Beijing Airport T3 on CA976 on 4 Aug 2015 at 1620 hours and need to transfer to a domestic flight CA1117 for Hailar departing at 1800 hours. There is only 1 hour 40 minutes for my group of five to clear immigration and inspection, claim baggage and then check in for domestic flight (which closes at 1730 hours). Please advise whether I will be able to make the transfer within the short time.

Will the domestic check-in counter and domestic flight wait for us?

I understand the crowd is always heavy at custom and inspection. How long do we expect to take to clear all the custom and various inspections?

Am I likely to miss the domestic flight with just 1 hour and 40 minutes available for transfer (and this assumes my international flight arrival is not delayed)?

Thank you!

Usually, you need at least 120 mins for the transfer. You only have 100 mins. If your first flight is not delayed, you can catch the connecting flight. Just hurry up.
Don’t worry, the domestic flight will wait for you. The time for the transfer procedures depends on how crowd it is at that time. While you can negotiate with others to go through the procedures in advance, they may understand.
